Yesterday, our colleague Felix Bach was in Berlin to participate at the Leibniz Networking Meeting on AI for scientific use cases. Very interesting presentations and discussions on AI regulations at Leibniz institutes, AI use in research data management including aspects like metadata extraction and data interviews.

The recently established Leibniz Science Campus “Digital Transformation of Research” (DiTraRe) investigates the effects of the broadly understood process of digitalisation of research on a multilevel scale. The project concentrates on four research clusters concerning different topics and gathering use cases from varying scientific areas. For a multiscale investigation these research clusters are interwoven with four dimensions, which approach the tasks from different perspectives and pose their own research questions. Within this matrix we are not only developing practical solutions for each use case but also seeking to find generalisations valuable to the scientific community as well as society in general.

To gain access to the abundance of information that is available today, search engines and sophisticated information processing applications are required. In order to obtain well-structured knowledge, technologies such as natural language processing, knowledge extraction, and ontology engineering must be applied. Semantic technologies provide a formal representation of knowledge contained in research data, thus facilitating the efficient integration of heterogeneous data sources. The growing adoption of AI-based knowledge mining technologies requires comprehensible and trustworthy AI algorithms (“explainable AI”). Both statistic and linguistic analysis methods as well as machine learning in combination with symbolic logic and interference mechanisms are applied.

Our use case partner Axel Loewe has published "A cyclical fast iterative method for simulating reentries in cardiac electrophysiology using an eikonal-based model": The DREAM model, which incorporates conduction velocity restitution and an approximated reaction-diffusion component, significantly accelerates the simulation of complex cardiac arrhythmias compared to traditional models.

Fig. 9 Left atrium posterolateral view of transmembrane voltage
maps of induced reentries at different time points after S2,
stimulated at a point near the mitral valve. a Monodomain
model with 200 m average edge length, b DREAM with
1600 m average edge length.  Figure 9 shows an example where the DREAM shows a figure-of-eight reentry while the mono-
domain model shows a spiral reentry. This difference arose
from the lack of source-sink mismatch representation in
the DREAM. In both cases, the reentries were sustained
for the full 1000 ms simulated.
